The design of an
airplane, which is being dealt in this course, involves synthesizing knowledge
in areas like aerodynamics, structures, propulsion, systems and manufacturing
techniques. The aim is to arrive at the configuration of an airplane, which will
satisfy aforesaid requirements, This PDF covers the following topics related to
Aircraft Design : Aircraft Design RequirementsAirplane Weight Estimation,

The aim of this manual is to briefly state theoretical bases of
methods and models used in conceptual airplane design, to develop and
consolidate understanding of the relations between the main airplane parameters
and characteristics, and to prepare students to perform their graduation
projects. This tutorial contains only necessary information for obtaining the
first experience in the conceptual airplane design. Also it is supposed that
students refer to textbooks and other scientific sources, which seems difficult
at first. In this case this tutorial should be used as a guide-book for
additional information sources.
